The new website catering to those eligible for government cash handouts can serve 3.48 million transactions in one minute and would not overload, the vice minister to the prime minister, Charnkrit Dejwituk, said.

 

"Rao Mai Ting Kan" is a registration channel for people affected by the Covid-19 situation who will receive Bt5,000 from the government for three months. The registration will open from Saturday (March 28), 6pm.

 

“The website can serve 58,000 transactions at the same time, and 3.48 million per minute,” he said.

 

“Krungthai Bank will use artificial intelligence to screen the eligible persons, in line with the government’s criteria, from total registration, preventing permission to criminals,” he added.

 

The vice minister, moreover, said that the Finance Ministry would seek a bigger budget from the government if the number of eligible people is higher than the estimate.

Well doesn't that sound like a plan!

Perhaps since a bank is doing it there may be some hope, but I find the numbers and speed a little hard to believe, where have they trialed this and for how long?

So every eligible Thai citizen should be sorted in the next 5 to 10 minutes

The last time the govt did a handout like this, my wife tried pretty much daily at all hours of the day and night to access the website where she needed to register for that...and never was able to accomplish it... the website every time said something to the effect of, already fully registered for the day, try again tomorrow. Even if you tried accessing it at 12:01 am. And that was just sometime in the past year.

artificial intelligence, as nobody possesses real intelligence ?

 

couldnt resist.... ????

My artificial knee joint tells me that there's something wrong with their artificial intelligence. 

 

But it does make sense. If these people don't get their intelligence from the artificial educational system, there's no way to have intelligent people, nor smart banks.
